Dear Tom & Susan:
So sorry to hear about Brian. Coker's mentioned in an email to us Jan 22nd that he had died. No one can understand how hard it is to lose a loved one until it happens to them. However, I can't help but think of the reunion of family when we will be reunited with them.
Reed's brother just passed away January 3lst so we understand.
May the Lord bless you and give you peace.

Love Reed & Mavis Sieverts

This is such a shock to hear about. I lost touch with Brian after Jr. High. He and I were in a group of about 4, who had excelled in math after Miss "A" worked with us in 5th and 6th grade and put us a year ahead of most of our classmates in math. He and his family are in my prayers.
